Cardinals released OT Max Starks.

Starks was signed on Aug. 1 as Bruce Arians kicked the tires on his old friend from Pittsburgh. It didn't work out. Starks, now 32, spent most of last season out of the league and appears to be headed down the same path this year. Mon, Aug 25, 2014 12:38:00 PM

Cardinals signed OT Max Starks.

Coach Bruce Arians brings in a veteran he knows well from their Pittsburgh days. Starks, now 32, spent the first nine seasons of his career as a Steeler and started 96 games at left tackle. Last year, he spent a few weeks on the Rams' roster before getting handed his walking papers before Week 5. If Starks sticks with the Cardinals, he'll be depth behind Jared Veldheer and Bobby Massie.

Rams released OT Max Starks.

The move clears a roster spot for OLB Jo-Lonn Dunbar, and is an indication RT Rodger Saffold (knee) will be ready for Week 5. Starks played just eight snaps in two games for the Rams. The former Steeler is near the end of his career. Tue, Oct 1, 2013 05:12:00 PM

Rams signed OT Max Starks, formerly of the Chargers, to a one-year contract.

Starks, 31, was in for a workout with the Rams on Tuesday. He was joined by fellow veteran Demetress Bell and undrafted rookie R.J. Dill at the tryout. With RT Rodger Saffold (MCL) sidelined for a couple weeks, the Rams needed a No. 3 tackle behind starters Jake Long and Joe Barksdale. Starks looked finished in the preseason when he couldn't beat out King Dunlap in San Diego. Wed, Sep 18, 2013 06:16:00 PM

Depth Charts

Lovelocke (6'5/248) was a four-year starter for the PVAMU Panthers, completing 57.6 percent of his senior-year passes with a 16:9 TD-to-INT ratio and ten additional rushing scores. A massive quarterback with 10 1/2-inch hands and 34 1/4-inch arms, Lovelocke has ideal tight end dimensions and could get a look there after running 4.81/4.84 at his Pro Day with a 31-inch vertical and 9-foot-5 broad jump. Lovelocke isn't going to make it as a quarterback.

The Chiefs used a 2012 sixth-round pick on Gray. He appeared in 35 games the past three seasons, mainly on special teams. He's rushed for 99 career yards and one touchdown on 24 carries as the No. 3 back. Gray suffered a torn ACL in November and is now healthy enough where the Chiefs could cut him.

Copeland (5-foot-11 1/8, 271) went to LSU as a four-star defensive tackle, but converted to fullback as a true freshman and became a 22-game starter. What Copeland lacks in versatility -- he's no more than a short-yardage runner and caught seven career passes at LSU -- he makes up for with aggressive, relentless lead blocking. An extremely physical player, Copeland consistently removed linebackers from plays to clear alleys for Jeremy Hill. Dallas isn't a great landing spot for Copeland, however, due to OC Scott Linehan's pass-happy leanings.

Cardinals undrafted WR Damond Powell was shot on Friday, but did not suffer life-threatening injuries.

The incident happened in Powell's hometown of Toledo, Ohio. According to FOX10TV.com, Powell was sitting in his driveway with friends when he was shot in the face. Standing in at 5-foot-11, 180 pounds, Powell is a slot prospect out of Iowa. It's unclear if he'll be ready for training camp this week.
